- Part One - The Best of the interviews with experts that never talked to me again...
Twitter: OnCunk
Sharing all things Cunk - a fictional character from Charlie Brooker's Weekly Wipe, Cunk on Britain, Cunk on Shakespeare and Cunk on Earth - Portrayed by the incredible Diane Morgan.
“Hello Philosophy lady. Am I here?” 😂😂
Only if you think you are. René Descartes.😅
@@maartenvandam344 Descartes actually didn't believe these hypotheses, he only brought them up as plausible but 'disproves' them later on.
He (naively) believed that due to a just god all of that wouldn't be of any concern because he would have been created in a way that wasn't deceiving him.
His writings get weirdly theological moving along. For example he wrote that he would like to brush physical reality aside so that he could finally see the divinity moving everything behind that.
I didn't finish it and don't intend to but I don't know if it gets more unhinged.
Or was this a mistranslation of the Cogito? If so, yeah he obviously believed that
@giratina6665 All I know about Descartes is that one phrase, "I think, therefore I am," and I attempted a little quip with it.
That was epic bro 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love her "my mate Paul" stories. What a life Paul has led.
everyone should know a Paul.
I was just gonna comment "i wanna meet Paul so bad", then i saw this... Glad i´m not alone
It the male "my b_tch" Julie of Ali G... Maybe Ali G is Paul and Philomena is Julie?
@@RayOrly-fs3gr makes sense
I want to see Paul. Hahaha
_"So that's your idea of significant..."_ Damn why was she so brutal about it lmao!
"I killed John Bishop"..."Did you??" LOL!
😂
He says it like a killer with 0 remorse
His intonation was so serious and slow that for a second, I too believed him xD
That perfect touch of innocence she has behind her statements and questions is just the right amount to make someone think “oh okay, she’s not messing around with me, she’s just a bit daft.”
To be able to walk that line and say the right things without taking it over the top is brilliant.
Comedic genius. It reminds me of Sacha Cohen, Nathan Fielder, or Caleb Williams, but again she’s more grounded than those guys.
The majority knew it was a comedy show, they just didn't know what TF she was going to say or where the conversation was going. She said it several times in interviews that it took ages to record some of the people because they couldn't keep it together!
a "bit" ? 😅
She’s at the top of the game.
The philosophy/dreaming bit was priceless. That was pure comedy. I could not hold it together when the philosopher actually tried to make sense of that word salad Diane threw at her.
The most impressive thing was that she almost succeeded.
It is actually a very valid question in philosophy. Descartes' "I think therefore I am" attempts to deal with it.
My favourite too haha, literally laughing out loud
The art of saying something crazy with just enough confidence to make whoever your talking to think they're the ones tweaking.
Calling Brian Cox gloomy is one of the best things I've ever heard 😂.
And then proceeding to ask him what it feels like to be sucked off through a hole.
but at least he has the imagination to consider being sucked off through a hole. glorious!
That architect looked like he was being tortured in a prison camp 😂😂😂
Well more like a interrogated by NKVD in russian
Or like that guy when Ali G (Saha Baron Cohen) was doing interview about "vets" and "veterinarians".
I bet that guy also wanted to be back in Nam at this moment...
😂😂😂
9:12 The way the camera cuts to his face, a perfect mixture of shock, disgust and confusion. Perfect.
"Sucked off through a hole" 😂😂😂😂
That’s how it always ends.
She set that up sooo good. The delays, hand movements and nuance in her facial gestures was just sublime. So much discipline to have it flow out as if perfectly genuine. Awe striking performance. I love her.
“Yeah”
I was fucking dead on how pissed/exasperated she looked when she found out we're gonna collide with another galaxy in millions of years
2:44 "so thats your idea of significant" 😂😂😂
so not important?
Genius.
Everyone's blinking is so eloquently communicative.
"Do you think billionaires like Elon musk should be worried about getting guillotined" 😂
9:28 she left dude speechless 🤣🤣🤣
'Do you ever watch Homes under the Hammer?' Nearly choked to death. Diane Morgan is a genius.
the black hole bit gets me every time! lmao!
The most random glory hole conversation ever started in life. And i'm here for it.
@@noneya3635I'm still laughing. Tears from my eyes. So good.
I was not ready
merry Cunkmas everyone! i hope santa came in everybody's chimneys ;)
"I killed John Bishop."
"Did you?"
The Doomsday Book sounds a lot cooler than it really is then.
Yeah. Whoever named it was a grandiose twat lol. Imagine naming a census book of land & holdings "The Doomsday Book" 😂
Apparently so. I thought it was like a history of UK and a prophesy of the possible end.
Nope, just a census.
@@Lukecash2 I think it provides useful factoids to shorten tedious conversations at cocktail parties, such as the ratio of goats to watermills in Kent.
@@yxx_chris_xxywhat is the ratio of watermills to goats in Kent?
I would also like to know the answer to that @@TommyMoritz
“the curse” “raiders of the lost ark” “i’m afraid not” 😂 help😂
So my shoes are building? 😅😅 The expert's face
That's the least smiley I've ever seen Brian Cox! He kept it together well!!😂😂
“Did the printing press actually change anything of significance?” 😂😂😅😅😅
Her little “ohhh🙂” at 7:17 is so funny 😂
That was my absolutely favourite part
She was like, “yeah hmm I’ll think about it”
doomsday book lady was so patient lol
ashamed to say the "if we came from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?" actually got me thinking for a second...
If you haven’t figured it out by now I’ll explain. We did not come from monkeys (common misconception) but rather we have a common ancestor. Think of it like this: there was a different species let’s call pre-monkey (not human or monkey). Then these pre-monkeys split and evolved in two different paths, one path becoming humans the other becoming monkeys and now there are no more pre-monkeys. Hope that helps feel free to ask any questions!
@@nmgactor8752And why aren’t humans turning into other forms? 🤣
@@panchopistola8298 we actually are! There are a few small mutations seen throughout our population that is different compared to people during history. One example of this is our mouths. Human mouths have gotten much smaller over timer (which leads to crowding and the removal of wisdom teeth) because we have adapted to have bigger brains rather than bigger mouths.
Yet there are two main reasons we aren’t adapting like you might expect. Reason 1) our medical systems kind of slow this down. Survival of the fittest means if someone is not fit in their environment and they die earlier they cannot pass their genes on. Yet our medical system allows these people to live longer and pass on their genetic information so things aren’t disappearing or changing as much.
Yet the second and biggest, more real reason is time. Modern humans have existed for around 300,000 years. Which may seem like a long time yet is minuscule compared to the 14 billion years ears is. Evolution takes a longggg time, millions and millions of years. Modern humans simply haven’t existed long enough for us to adapt. However, we are and will still adapt. Millions of years from now humans may look very different to how we are today.
Let’s look at another example. In the late 1700s the average male height was 5’6”, today that is 5’9”. Why have we grown taller? Perhaps one of the biggest reasons is because women find it more attractive, and therefore these taller people pass on their genetic information more frequently. It is very possible that in the future average male height may be even taller!
One last point I’d like to make is the lack of stressors in our environment. Humans control how and where we live so much our environment poses very little threat to ourselves compared to wild animals. If some sort of drastic change were to happen that posed deadly threats humans would evolve to fit that environment. For example, the average temperature on earth has been increasing due to global warming. If things eventually become too hot for humans, we will most likely evolve to have an average body temperature that is different from it is now in order to survive.
Long story short, we are still adapting and there are things we can see of it. The reason there is no big changed is it hasn’t been nearly enough time. And given the millions of years needed we most likely will have “evolved” and look very different. And the environment doesn’t really require us to evolve because how in control we are.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask! I doubt anything here will change your mind at all but learning about opposing views in civil conversation from a place of curiosity and learning is always a great thing. So yes feel free to ask!
@@panchopistola8298nigga do you know how evolution works? Humans have only been around for a couple thousand years.
In short: there have been multiple human species (homo habilens, homo neanderthalensis, etc) over the last few million years. The current human species had a genetic bottleneck not too long ago geologically speaking, so every human today is much more related than to most previous species.
And there are mutations that are arising like not being born with an appendix, jaws getting weaker, short-sighted eyes being more common, etc, just not things that are as visible for the most part. Some people even think that autism is getting more common in some societies because it's beneficial for certain critical jobs.
Philamena Cunk and Brian Cox in the same video. I love it 😁
I'd love to see out-takes, given that none of the people are actors I'm baffled how they kept straight faces.
they are aware she's doing a bit, I've heard that the show runners essentially tell the experts to treat Diane's character like a child.
@@45johngaltthey know she's acting, but its funny cause they're still baffled by the sheer ignorance she pretends to have. It's like they know but at the same time they have the idea of "wow, a person can really be this dumb"
Brian Cox looks like a very British Keanu Reeves
Ohh you don't say. Now I cannot unsee him as Keanu.
Omfg true
First time I saw Brian Cox not smiling or grinning.
Philomena Cunk is my favorite interviewer. She brings out aspects of subject one cannot get anywhere else. I learn something new every time.
“Am I here?…..How do you knoooow?” 😂
8:20 was the most threatening 30s I’ve ever witnessed😅
5:34 so my shoe 👟 is a building!
So glad I found these ... absolutely brilliant!
Philomena, have just discovered you and you are BRILLIANT! Thanks for making me laugh!! ❤
"So you've never seen home under the hammer?" 😂
please never stop this.
A test would be if you can read print. I read that if you are asleep, the part of the brain for reading and understanding the written word is shutdown while you are asleep. I haven't had the opportunity to prove this, but it's quite an interesting concept.
I've also heard it's very hard to rapidly change light levels a significant amount in dreams, so turning a light switch on and off is a pretty good way to tell.
yes, but how would you tell you weren't just dreaming that you could read it? Or maybe you just dreamt that you read that if you're asleep, the part of the brain for reading shuts down? Or...
That is false. I have had many dreams after I heard this fact where I could properly read what was written
@@s.aslahahmadfaizi4687 highly unlikely. The better chance is that you saw what you supposed was text and your dreamstate told you what that text said.
I actually have a very difficult time reading things when I'm daydreaming, let alone dream-dreaming... lol
Comedy Gold........More Please.
I'd give anything to see Philomena on 'Hard Chat' with Tom Gleeson.
Or just anything with Philomena and Tom together.
Absolutely brilliant!😅
She’s priceless 🙏🙏
"So that's your idea of significant"
Fucking brilliant! LMAO!! 😂
The way she sighs after finding out the Andromeda galaxy will hit us kills me every time. 7:56
That’s the best into for a philosophy lady and great trick question ever
Every single soul on this series is our finest : )
28/01/24. Perfect timing. Thanks.
I just love this woman, but I can only watch her for about 5 minutes and then I just can’t take it 😁
Brilliant
Her voice is so beautiful
"sucked off through a hole".....Poor Brian cox😂😂
She's hilarious my kind of wit.
Just brilliant! 😂
You got to love her utter brilliance 😂👌❤
Ladies in waiting, and before that monkey ladies in waiting really got me LOL!
Oh, my! When I heard Marianne Talbot speak I suddenly remembered I had listened to her podcast series titled "Critical Reasoning: A Romp Through the Foothills of Logic".
Just discovered this. Pretty funny pretty funny 😂
"If humans cam from monkeys then why are there still monkeys?"
Asking the real questions here...
We need bloopers😂
Are these tehearsed or prewritten? Her delivery and timing is just too perfect. Id love it just as much if it was
Did the printing press change anything of significance? 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Well that all depends on your idea of significance
It made important changes, not significant ones 😏
@@Wafflesaurusso not significant?
@@derlangsame7813 *tries to not laugh*
The man on the till in Amazon!!😂😂😂😂😂
Philomena Cunk missed an opportuny with the Doomesday Book. I mean, there's an Indiana Jones film called the Temple of Doom
9:13 DIED
I think she broke him
I LOVE HER FOREVER.
I died after the Andromeda bit😂
Love Brian Cox answers- she could not trap him and the philosophy lady
I would say she trapped Cox very well.
At the end she asked -Can you imagine how it would feel like to been sucked off through a hole?
He answered: Yeah! while biting his lips.
She nailed it, maybe she should have named him too, like "Can you imagine Mr.Cox how it would feel like to been sucked off through a hole?
Still it's pure gold...
The philosophy broke me
Diane is an accomplished actress but was born to play Philomena!❤
"so.. my shoes are a building?"
I want to hug Brian Cox so hardly and gently!!!
"When the Universe has exploded..."
"It's not going to explode. It's going to, we think-.."
"Melt?"
"-carry on expanding......"
"Right"
Professor Brian Cox doesn't get glory hole jokes 😂
oh, i think he does...
@@hedonismunderstands2469 He was able to very vividly imagine getting sucked of through a hole... with his bread sauce forming a new galaxy in the universe into which the black hole sends its stuff.
British understatement is comedic in itself.
I would really lose my shit if Sascha baron Cohen and her had a philosophical discussion
10:30... his face lollolololollol
Poor Brian Cox, trying to be scientific while challenged with your questions
Do these profs and experts know / suspect that they're being pranked? 😂 We need behind the screen segment!
"What is a building?"
Philomena Cunk makes perfect sense to me. I don't understand how she's considered funny.
Excuse me-- my cat's asking me for Mexican take-out from under the bed.
Especially when talking to the astronomer. I mean Jeez dude, why ya grinning like a jackass eating a cactus when you're talking about exploding suns and galactic collisions. Get some perspective.
@@noneya3635 🤣
@@noneya3635 Well yeah, well, it's quite a long time in the future.
@noneya3635 don't worry mate, you'll be long gone.
Free them souls in that domesday book!!!!! She insisted!!!
Nigel Tufnel’s love child. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmfao I’m from America and I just found her. This character is much more than I could ask for
Cunk and Pilkington attempting to understand the world would be fantastic
Better not. Any aliens coming across this would be strongly tempted to euthanize us.
I think Cunk had it right when she said "Could we fall down a black hole". "Down" is in the direction of the most dominant local source of gravity.
Brian Cox could learn from her.
Oh dear! Past life regressions bring up the memory from collective field that you can tap into according to your own vibration, perception.
Mint 🤩😂😂
When I'm awake I know about another state of consciousness which when in that state (and I remember) I have no awareness of another state of consciousness. Rarely do I confuse the two.
Homes under the hammer 😂😂😂 killed me
I noticed that she didn't drill when the experts makes mistakes. For example, universe literally is exploding, and the guy's explanation is basically a slow motion of explosion. Yet she chose to unaddress and changed the topic. A similar thing happens to the definition of building. She gently pointed out an obvious incompletedness in the expert's definition of building that she was sure the viewers will notice, and changed the subject to minecraft as soon as that's finished.
2:43 😂
Absolutely Brilliant Diane Morgan is An Amusing actress. Professor Brian Cox's Face when philaimina asks him if he has ever wondered what it's liked to be sucked of through a hole. And he answers yep! Totally brilliant.!😂😂😂😂😂
- their souls are in the book
- I don't think that that is *necessarily* true...
That sound what a necromancer would Say about his book of souls...coincidence?
when i hear “my mate Paul”, i start to laugh right away and cant listen to the story of his glorios live anymore
Philomena,I love your kind of humor,its priceless !
I'm surprised that the experts still agree to go on camera with her, knowing she's going to take the piss out of 'em...
They're in on the act
3:47 ❤ 😂
“That’s not necessarily true”…I love British politeness
